It is about California's coastal region and things that you can do on the coast.

So what will happen when Nibiru passes Earth by the end of the year? Well, according to Moore, Nibiru will cause a pole shift. The shift he says, will cause the poles to move by 20 to 50 degrees. John Moore has interviewed dozens of US Navy submarine and surface fleet veterans on the subject of rapid global sea level rise, gleaning information from the questions he asks, questions the main stream media is afraid to ask. His investigative prowess has allowed him to produce two major videos on the subject of Planet “X”; videos that are backed up by diligent research, documented history and scientific fact.

On a sun-scorched wasteland near India's southern tip, an unlikely garden filled with spiky shrubs and spindly greens is growing, seemingly against all odds.
The plants are living on saltwater, coping with drought and possibly offering viable farming alternatives for a future in which rising seas have inundated countless coastal farmlands.
Until now saltwater flooding for a farmer long meant certain crop failure.
Natural disasters such as the 2004 Asian tsunami left countless plots unproductive for years.
Asia's coastal farmers, including millions impoverished in India, now face similar problems.
Climate change will bring stronger storms and warmer temperatures that expand ocean waters and melt ice caps and glaciers.
As a result, seas are set to rise up to 1 meter (3.2 feet) in this century, according to the latest scientific forecasts.
Indian scientists from the M.S. SwaminathanResearchFoundation are experimenting with halophytes, naturally salt-tolerant plants.
They are also trying other approaches: tweaking genes and cross-breeding plants by conventional means to discover which might grow and even flourish.
" Most of the soil is already degraded and the saline water and the fresh water base for the irrigation is going down. So in that situation I feel now the time will come in the future we have to depend on the saline water, saline land and saline tolerant plant to, you know, make the food security really possible. So I feel that you know believing that we have enough arable lands and enough fresh water to produce food for the future is not correct," says marine biologist V Selvam.
Sesuvium portulacastrum, Paspalum vaginatum and Prosopis juliflora - these are just a few of the 350 known species of salt-tolerant plants that are candidates to become crops for the future.
Saltwater plants are unlikely to become staple foods, because while often high in nutrients they're also very salty and so should be eaten in moderation.
Species such as Salicornia europaea are already sold in European markets as a fancy salad addition or side dish. In England it is known as samphire and is often served with fish.
Supporters note a host of potential uses to make harvests profitable, including firewood, decorative flowers, kitty litter, nutritional supplements, cooking oil and biofuel.
Cattle fodder is another possibility, and Indian herders already graze their cattle on thorny shrubbery by the sea.
To feed its growing 1.26 billion population, India must increase food production 45 percent by 2050, for which experts say it may need to cultivate more land.
About 1.2 million hectares (3 million acres) of its coastal farmland has been degraded by salt, according to India's Central Soil Salinity Research Institute.
" Primarily halophytes are important because it can be used to improve the productivity of marginal lands, like saline affected lands ," explains V Selvam.
"We can use these halophytes to produce fodder grasses, we can also produce edible oil, then we can also produce salads and greens also we can be harvested for these halophytes. In that sense it can also play a role in ensuring food security of the coastal people, " he adds.
Inland, India has lost another 5.5 million hectares of arable farmland, out of its nationwide total 163 million hectares, though India's soil salinity troubles are exacerbated by industrial salt flats, a growing number of shrimp farms and the depletion of groundwater reserves.
Tetakudi is a swampy, seaside town dominated by salt flats.
Its 200 households lost about 5 kilometers (3 miles) of farmland, which now supports little more than a vast expanse of salt-tolerant shrubs .
Shrimp farming has added to the problem - the shrimp ponds are usually never lined properly, so their saltwater seeped into surrounding soils.
Already, 12 families have boarded up their homes and left.
Chellammal, a 65-year-old farming housewife in Tetakudi, knows the nightmare of farming on salt-contaminated land too well.
" If you help me believe that it's feasible , then I will be willing to grow this," said Chellammal, who goes by one name.
Already, 62 million hectares, or 20 percent, of the world's total 300 million hectares of irrigated farmland has been salinized to some extent.
Another 50 centimeters (1.6 feet) of sea rise, which is just half of what's expected by 2100, would swamp up to 1.9 million more hectares, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has said.
That will undermine the world's ability to find the additional 120 million hectares of farmland it needs for a staggering 70 percent increase in food production to feed the world by 2050, according to the U.N.Food and Agricultural Organization.

남해안 제주 아침까지 비
Good morningI am Lee Jee-hyun with your latest weather update.
It rained overnight in some parts of the country, mainly southern provinces had a wet night. Right now, rain clouds are moving away from the nation but some parts of Jeju Island and southern coastal regions are waking up to rain.
However, the rain was not enough to completely wash away the fine dust we've been suffering. Central parts of the country will need to be aware of high levels of fine dust until later this morning when the air should clear out.
We'll definitely have more sunshine compared to the last few days, but southern regions will still see lots of cloud coverage through the afternoon. We have a chilly morning to start the day, so dress warmly for your morning commute. Daily lows in Seoul started out at 3 degrees Celsius while Daejeon and Daegu saw a low of 4 degrees Celsius.
But temperatures will rise rapidly as we go through the day, highs will jump to the mid-teens. Seoul, Daejeon and Gwangju will get up to 15 degrees Celsius while Busan and Jeju will top out at 14 and 17 degrees respectively.
Daily highs in the capital will be couple of degrees higher than seasonal averages for the time being under a fair amount of sunshine.
That's Korea for you, and here's a look at conditions around the world.

Region

In geography, regions are areas broadly divided by physical characteristics (physical geography), human impact characteristics (human geography), and the interaction of humanity and the environment (environmental geography). Geographic regions and sub-regions are mostly described by their imprecisely defined, and sometimes transitory boundaries, except in human geography, where jurisdiction areas such as national borders are clearly defined in law.

Apart from the globalcontinental regions, there are also hydrospheric and atmospheric regions that cover the oceans, and discrete climates above the land and water masses of the planet. The land and water global regions are divided into subregions geographically bounded by large geological features that influence large-scale ecologies, such as plains and features.

As a way of describing spatial areas, the concept of regions is important and widely used among the many branches of geography, each of which can describe areas in regional terms. For example, ecoregion is a term used in environmental geography, cultural region in cultural geography, bioregion in biogeography, and so on. The field of geography that studies regions themselves is called regional geography.

Coast

A coastline or a seashore is the area where land meets the sea or ocean, or a line that forms the boundary between the land and the ocean or a lake. A precise line that can be called a coastline cannot be determined due to the Coastline paradox.

The term coastal zone is a region where interaction of the sea and land processes occurs. Both the terms coast and coastal are often used to describe a geographic location or region; for example, New Zealand's West Coast, or the East and West Coasts of the United States. Edinburgh for example is a city on the coast of Scotland.

A pelagic coast refers to a coast which fronts the open ocean, as opposed to a more sheltered coast in a gulf or Headlands and bays/bay. A shore, on the other hand, can refer to parts of the land which adjoin any large body of water, including oceans (sea shore) and lakes (lake shore). Similarly, the somewhat related term "[Stream bed/bank]" refers to the land alongside or sloping down to a river (riverbank) or to a body of water smaller than a lake. "Bank" is also used in some parts of the world to refer to an artificial ridge of earth intended to retain the water of a river or pond; in other places this may be called a levee.

Positivist social scientists use methods resembling those of the natural sciences as tools for understanding society, and so define science in its stricter modern sense. Interpretivist social scientists, by contrast, may use social critique or symbolic interpretation rather than constructing empirically falsifiable theories, and thus treat science in its broader sense. In modern academic practice, researchers are often eclectic, using multiple methodologies (for instance, by combining the quantitative and qualitative techniques). The term social research has also acquired a degree of autonomy as practitioners from various disciplines share in its aims and methods.

Another 50 centimeters (1.6 feet) of sea rise, which is just half of what's expected by 2100, would swamp up to 1.9 million more hectares, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has said.
That will undermine the world's ability to find the additional 120 million hectares of farmland it needs for a staggering 70 percent increase in food production to feed the world by 2050, according to the U.N.Food and Agricultural Organization.

On a sun-scorched wasteland near India's southern tip, an unlikely garden filled with spiky shrubs and spindly greens is growing, seemingly against all odds.
The plants are living on saltwater, coping with drought and possibly offering viable farming alternatives for a future in which rising seas have inundated countless coastal farmlands.
Until now saltwater flooding for a farmer long meant certain crop failure.
Natural disasters such as the 2004 Asian tsunami left countless plots unproductive for years.
Asia's coastal farmers, including millions impoverished in India, now face similar problems.
Climate change will bring stronger storms and warmer temperatures that expand ocean waters and melt ice caps and glaciers.
As a result, seas are set to rise up to 1 meter (3.2 feet) in this century, according to the latest scientific forecasts.
Indian scientists from the M.S. SwaminathanResearchFoundation are experimenting with halophytes, naturally salt-tolerant plants.
They are also trying other approaches: tweaking genes and cross-breeding plants by conventional means to discover which might grow and even flourish.
" Most of the soil is already degraded and the saline water and the fresh water base for the irrigation is going down. So in that situation I feel now the time will come in the future we have to depend on the saline water, saline land and saline tolerant plant to, you know, make the food security really possible. So I feel that you know believing that we have enough arable lands and enough fresh water to produce food for the future is not correct," says marine biologist V Selvam.
Sesuvium portulacastrum, Paspalum vaginatum and Prosopis juliflora - these are just a few of the 350 known species of salt-tolerant plants that are candidates to become crops for the future.
Saltwater plants are unlikely to become staple foods, because while often high in nutrients they're also very salty and so should be eaten in moderation.
Species such as Salicornia europaea are already sold in European markets as a fancy salad addition or side dish. In England it is known as samphire and is often served with fish.
Supporters note a host of potential uses to make harvests profitable, including firewood, decorative flowers, kitty litter, nutritional supplements, cooking oil and biofuel.
Cattle fodder is another possibility, and Indian herders already graze their cattle on thorny shrubbery by the sea.
To feed its growing 1.26 billion population, India must increase food production 45 percent by 2050, for which experts say it may need to cultivate more land.
About 1.2 million hectares (3 million acres) of its coastal farmland has been degraded by salt, according to India's Central Soil Salinity Research Institute.
" Primarily halophytes are important because it can be used to improve the productivity of marginal lands, like saline affected lands ," explains V Selvam.
"We can use these halophytes to produce fodder grasses, we can also produce edible oil, then we can also produce salads and greens also we can be harvested for these halophytes. In that sense it can also play a role in ensuring food security of the coastal people, " he adds.
Inland, India has lost another 5.5 million hectares of arable farmland, out of its nationwide total 163 million hectares, though India's soil salinity troubles are exacerbated by industrial salt flats, a growing number of shrimp farms and the depletion of groundwater reserves.
Tetakudi is a swampy, seaside town dominated by salt flats.
Its 200 households lost about 5 kilometers (3 miles) of farmland, which now supports little more than a vast expanse of salt-tolerant shrubs .
Shrimp farming has added to the problem - the shrimp ponds are usually never lined properly, so their saltwater seeped into surrounding soils.
Already, 12 families have boarded up their homes and left.
Chellammal, a 65-year-old farming housewife in Tetakudi, knows the nightmare of farming on salt-contaminated land too well.
" If you help me believe that it's feasible , then I will be willing to grow this," said Chellammal, who goes by one name.

Good morningI am Lee Jee-hyun with your latest weather update.
It rained overnight in some parts of the country, mainly southern provinces had a wet night. Right now, rain clouds are moving away from the nation but some parts of Jeju Island and southern coastal regions are waking up to rain.
However, the rain was not enough to completely wash away the fine dust we've been suffering. Central parts of the country will need to be aware of high levels of fine dust until later this morning when the air should clear out.
We'll definitely have more sunshine compared to the last few days, but southern regions will still see lots of cloud coverage through the afternoon. We have a chilly morning to start the day, so dress warmly for your morning commute. Daily lows in Seoul started out at 3 degrees Celsius while Daejeon and Daegu saw a low of 4 degrees Celsius.
But temperatures will rise rapidly as we go through the day, highs will jump to the mid-teens. Seoul, Daejeon and Gwangju will get up to 15 degrees Celsius while Busan and Jeju will top out at 14 and 17 degrees respectively.
Daily highs in the capital will be couple of degrees higher than seasonal averages for the time being under a fair amount of sunshine.
That's Korea for you, and here's a look at conditions around the world.

Good morningI am Lee Jee-hyun with your latest weather update.
It rained overnight in some parts of the country, mainly southern provinces had a wet night. Right now, rain clouds are moving away from the nation but some parts of Jeju Island and southern coastal regions are waking up to rain.
However, the rain was not enough to completely wash away the fine dust we've been suffering. Central parts of the country will need to be aware of high levels of fine dust until later this morning when the air should clear out.
We'll definitely have more sunshine compared to the last few days, but southern regions will still see lots of cloud coverage through the afternoon. We have a chilly morning to start the day, so dress warmly for your morning commute. Daily lows in Seoul started out at 3 degrees Celsius while Daejeon and Daegu saw a low of 4 degrees Celsius.
But temperatures will rise rapidly as we go through the day, highs will jump to the mid-teens. Seoul, Daejeon and Gwangju will get up to 15 degrees Celsius while Busan and Jeju will top out at 14 and 17 degrees respectively.
Daily highs in the capital will be couple of degrees higher than seasonal averages for the time being under a fair amount of sunshine.
That's Korea for you, and here's a look at conditions around the world.

20. Managing Coastal Resources in an Era of Climate Change

Environmental Politics and Law (EVST 255)
The lecture reviews the legal and economic strategies that can be used to manage coastal development. Over half of the United States population lives in coastal areas and will be affected by sea level rise and more intense storms. The lecture looks at the conflict between property rights and efforts to protect coastal ecosystems through the use of eminent domain to create national seashores. Barrier islands such as Fire Island National Seashore and Cape Cod National Seashore are used as case studies; a variety of strategies have been employed to manage these constantly moving islands. The lecture also discusses the role insurance plays in coastal settlement patterns; changes in insurers' policies in high-risk coastal areas could change the way p...

Hydrodynamic Modeling On The Northwest European Shelf And North Sea

In this webinar we will focus on the continuous development and improvements in the operational tide-surge models of the NorthwestEuropean Shelf and in particular the North Sea and adjacent shallow seas and estuaries. For the Netherlands, accurate water-level forecasting in the coastal region is crucial, since large areas of the land lie below sea level. The importance of providing precise and reliable warnings is only enhanced by the presence of movable barriers such as the Eastern ScheldtBarrier and the Maeslant Barrier in the Rotterdam Waterway, which require the decision to close to be taken in advance and only when strictly necessary.
In the past years a new generation tide-surge model (DutchContinental ShelfModel version 6) has been developed covering the northwest European cont...

John Moore has interviewed dozens of US Navy submarine and surface fleet veterans on the subject of rapid global sea level rise, gleaning information from the questions he asks, questions the main stream media is afraid to ask. His investigative prowess has allowed him to produce two major videos on the subject of Planet “X”; videos that are backed up by diligent research, documented history and scientific fact.

https://www.ibiology.org/ibioseminars/consequences-amazon-deforestation.html
Part 1: Consequences of Amazon Deforestation: Dr. Christopher Neill describes the dramatic changes in the ecosystem that have resulted from Amazon deforestation for agriculture.
Part 2: Amazon Ecosystem Dynamics at the Agro-industrial Frontier: Dr. Neill studies the interface between agricultural land and forest to learn how to further prevent changes in the Amazon ecosystem.
Talk Overview:
The Amazon rainforest is the largest tropical forest on earth. It absorbs vast amounts of CO2, and is large enough to impact local and global weather. Dr. Christopher Neill describes the dramatic changes in the Amazon ecosystem that have resulted from deforestation for agriculture. Forest fragmentation has caused more species extinction, more fires and increased concern about drought. Neill ends his talk on a brighter note, pointing out that government intervention and modified agricultural practices have decreased Amazon deforestation by 75% in the past 10 years.
In his second lecture, Neill and his group go to the Tanguro Ranch in the southeastern Amazon of Brazil. The farm is at the interface between agricultural land and forest and provides a perfect area to study how expansion and intensification of cropping practices influence croplands watersheds, and the surrounding forest. Neill’s research explores how to prevent further deforestation by intensifying agriculture on already cleared areas, and how to do this without increasing the environmental impacts to weather, air and water.
Speaker Biography:
Dr. Christopher Neill is a SeniorScientist at the Woods Hole Research Center (WHRC) in Falmouth, MA. Before joining the WHRC, Neill spent 4 years as Director of the Ecosystems Center at the Marine Biological Laboratory, where he was a scientist from 1996-2016 and retains a position as a Fellow.
Neill investigates how changes in land use, such as increased agriculture or residential development, impact the surrounding ecosystems. He works in the Amazon rainforest and in coastal regions of Massachusetts. Neill was a Fulbright scholar in Brazil in 2007 and a Bullard Fellow at Harvard University in 2010.

In this webinar we will focus on the continuous development and improvements in the operational tide-surge models of the NorthwestEuropean Shelf and in particular the North Sea and adjacent shallow seas and estuaries. For the Netherlands, accurate water-level forecasting in the coastal region is crucial, since large areas of the land lie below sea level. The importance of providing precise and reliable warnings is only enhanced by the presence of movable barriers such as the Eastern ScheldtBarrier and the Maeslant Barrier in the Rotterdam Waterway, which require the decision to close to be taken in advance and only when strictly necessary.
In the past years a new generation tide-surge model (DutchContinental ShelfModel version 6) has been developed covering the northwest European continental shelf, with a uniform cell size of about 1×1 nautical miles. During the model development many potential sources of error have been addressed, in particular through the use of parameter estimation techniques to decrease uncertainty in time-independent parameters. While this model has a tide representation that is substantially better than comparable models of this scale, increased model resolution in coastal regions (such as the Dutch estuaries and shallow seas like the Wadden Sea) is essential for improving the representation of higher harmonics and non-linear tide–surge interaction there. In addition a steady-state Kalman filter has been implemented to increase the predictive quality for the shorter lead times (up to approximately 12 h).
We will show that Delft3D FlexibleMesh (Delft3D FM) produces accurate model results. In addition, developments and opportunities made possible by Delft3D FM are discussed. For example, by making use of the new flexibility that the unstructured grid allows, we have optimized the grid. This significantly reduces the computation time, while the accuracy remains of the same order. Finally, we will discuss on-going research including the development of a 3D transport model for the same area and a possibly baroclinically induced annual modulation of the M2 tide.

Salt tolerant plants for low lying coastal regions

On a sun-scorched wasteland near India's southern tip, an unlikely garden filled with spiky shrubs and spindly greens is growing, seemingly against all odds.
The plants are living on saltwater, coping with drought and possibly offering viable farming alternatives for a future in which rising seas have inundated countless coastal farmlands.
Until now saltwater flooding for a farmer long meant certain crop failure.
Natural disasters such as the 2004 Asian tsunami left countless plots unproductive for years.
Asia's coastal farmers, including millions impoverished in India, now face similar problems.
Climate change will bring stronger storms and warmer temperatures that expand ocean waters and melt ice caps and glaciers.
As a result, seas are set to rise up to 1 meter (3.2 feet) in this century, according to the latest scientific forecasts.
Indian scientists from the M.S. SwaminathanResearchFoundation are experimenting with halophytes, naturally salt-tolerant plants.
They are also trying other approaches: tweaking genes and cross-breeding plants by conventional means to discover which might grow and even flourish.
" Most of the soil is already degraded and the saline water and the fresh water base for the irrigation is going down. So in that situation I feel now the time will come in the future we have to depend on the saline water, saline land and saline tolerant plant to, you know, make the food security really possible. So I feel that you know believing that we have enough arable lands and enough fresh water to produce food for the future is not correct," says marine biologist V Selvam.
Sesuvium portulacastrum, Paspalum vaginatum and Prosopis juliflora - these are just a few of the 350 known species of salt-tolerant plants that are candidates to become crops for the future.
Saltwater plants are unlikely to become staple foods, because while often high in nutrients they're also very salty and so should be eaten in moderation.
Species such as Salicornia europaea are already sold in European markets as a fancy salad addition or side dish. In England it is known as samphire and is often served with fish.
Supporters note a host of potential uses to make harvests profitable, including firewood, decorative flowers, kitty litter, nutritional supplements, cooking oil and biofuel.
Cattle fodder is another possibility, and Indian herders already graze their cattle on thorny shrubbery by the sea.
To feed its growing 1.26 billion population, India must increase food production 45 percent by 2050, for which experts say it may need to cultivate more land.
About 1.2 million hectares (3 million acres) of its coastal farmland has been degraded by salt, according to India's Central Soil Salinity Research Institute.
" Primarily halophytes are important because it can be used to improve the productivity of marginal lands, like saline affected lands ," explains V Selvam.
"We can use these halophytes to produce fodder grasses, we can also produce edible oil, then we can also produce salads and greens also we can be harvested for these halophytes. In that sense it can also play a role in ensuring food security of the coastal people, " he adds.
Inland, India has lost another 5.5 million hectares of arable farmland, out of its nationwide total 163 million hectares, though India's soil salinity troubles are exacerbated by industrial salt flats, a growing number of shrimp farms and the depletion of groundwater reserves.
Tetakudi is a swampy, seaside town dominated by salt flats.
Its 200 households lost about 5 kilometers (3 miles) of farmland, which now supports little more than a vast expanse of salt-tolerant shrubs .
Shrimp farming has added to the problem - the shrimp ponds are usually never lined properly, so their saltwater seeped into surrounding soils.
Already, 12 families have boarded up their homes and left.
Chellammal, a 65-year-old farming housewife in Tetakudi, knows the nightmare of farming on salt-contaminated land too well.
" If you help me believe that it's feasible , then I will be willing to grow this," said Chellammal, who goes by one name.
Already, 62 million hectares, or 20 percent, of the world's total 300 million hectares of irrigated farmland has been salinized to some extent.
Another 50 centimeters (1.6 feet) of sea rise, which is just half of what's expected by 2100, would swamp up to 1.9 million more hectares, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has said.
That will undermine the world's ability to find the additional 120 million hectares of farmland it needs for a staggering 70 percent increase in food production to feed the world by 2050, according to the U.N.Food and Agricultural Organization.

Southern coastal regions and Jeju see morning rain

남해안 제주 아침까지 비
Good morningI am Lee Jee-hyun with your latest weather update.
It rained overnight in some parts of the country, mainly southern provinces had a wet night. Right now, rain clouds are moving away from the nation but some parts of Jeju Island and southern coastal regions are waking up to rain.
However, the rain was not enough to completely wash away the fine dust we've been suffering. Central parts of the country will need to be aware of high levels of fine dust until later this morning when the air should clear out.
We'll definitely have more sunshine compared to the last few days, but southern regions will still see lots of cloud coverage through the afternoon. We have a chilly morning to start the day, so dress warmly for your morning commute. Daily lows in Seoul started out at 3 degrees Celsius while Daejeon and Daegu saw a low of 4 degrees Celsius.
But temperatures will rise rapidly as we go through the day, highs will jump to the mid-teens. Seoul, Daejeon and Gwangju will get up to 15 degrees Celsius while Busan and Jeju will top out at 14 and 17 degrees respectively.
Daily highs in the capital will be couple of degrees higher than seasonal averages for the time being under a fair amount of sunshine.
That's Korea for you, and here's a look at conditions around the world.

Hydrodynamic Modeling On The Northwest European Shelf And North Sea

In this webinar we will focus on the continuous development and improvements in the operational tide-surge models of the NorthwestEuropean Shelf and in particular the North Sea and adjacent shallow seas and estuaries. For the Netherlands, accurate water-level forecasting in the coastal region is crucial, since large areas of the land lie below sea level. The importance of providing precise and reliable warnings is only enhanced by the presence of movable barriers such as the Eastern ScheldtBarrier and the Maeslant Barrier in the Rotterdam Waterway, which require the decision to close to be taken in advance and only when strictly necessary.
